Zen(x)

Zen(x) is a relaxing one-button game I created on the Global Game Jam 2017. Since the theme this year was "Waves" I decided to go with sine waves - hence the name. After GGJ2017 was finished I decided to work on it more so I can fully fledge it out and roll it out properly onto Android devices.

The game is a one-button infinite experience. You press space (or tap the screen) when the "pointer" is on the line, or when the calculation is equal to zero. The closer you are the more points you get, and when you are perfectly on the line you get some extra. Each time you miss the line or press completely off you lose a life, and after 5 misses the game ends.

What helps make the game very zen and relaxing is the audio production. At the game jam site I met a wonderful fellow named Tom Campbell (tomcampbellmusic.co.uk/) who created the background music and the sounds for the game, making it even more tranquil.
